Infusing Vodka

[Yakoo752]

You say all this like Vodka isn't just shitty gasoline. All I know is, I have had shitty vodka (Smirnoff, Stolichnaya) put through a filter and chilled it seemed to taste as clean as a higher shelf item like Grey Goose. The process seems to work, but vodka is just a mixer booze. You can only refine something that is supposed to have Zero flavor so much. If you want flavor you drink whiskey.

the process does work, just don't think it will actually stand up against a better vodka. For the price of brita filters (which you can "technically" only use once for this process) you might as well just buy a better vodka.

What is whiskey without flavor? Vodka more or less 1 is distilled to 190 proof the other 160 proof but the technique is identical.

Ikea also sells glass jars in a bunch of sizes with the rubber seal and the spring clip closure. Decent prices too.

Thank you!!! That is a GREAT idea. Also, I have IKEA in my neighborhood.

For mason jars, craft stores like michaels, hardware and grocery stores

Thanks, I just called Michaels and they put some aside for me.

Costco? Just give away any extras as gifts to the lady friends!

I see what you did there!!

mason jars correct?

sur la table - typically has some nice reusable ones in stock

just by the case of them, they make great storage cases in general

I'm sort of a pack-rat at times, so I try not to buy 'extra' anything.

Thank you all for the responses. I will be shopping after work!!
